Question / Help Party Audio

Hey everyone,

This is my first post here and I've searched google, FOREVER and can't find anything that can resolve this issue.

So when playing Fortnite, the volume for other players in my party is too low. The game audio is nice and loud, my voice audio for the stream is loud as well. The voice chat settings in-game is already maxed out completely. How can I fix this issue? Since both the in-game party chat and regular game audio come into OBS as one audio source I don't think I can boost the sound with filters since trying to raise the in-game party volume will also raise the rest of the game's audio.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? It's really ruining my stream at the moment since I spend a lot of time conversing with other players in-game but if you watch the stream you can't hear them, well you can but barely... This also only happens with fortnite. Other games, like PUBG, CS:GO or Modern Warfare, the in-game voice chat audio comes through fine for other players.

Thanks in advance for all the help!

If the ingame party chat in Fortnite is too low, but already maxed within Fortnite, then the other sound sources within Fortnite are too high. Lower all the other sound items in Fortnite, so in comparison to all of them, the party chat becomes louder. If, after that, the whole Fortnite is too low, increase the Fortnite sound volume with the Windows mixer.

Thanks for the suggestion Koala, I'll be sure to test this out and update this thread.

Update: So I did exactly what you said and it still didn't work. I turned down all other sounds in Fortnite, voice chat was already 100% and Windows Mixer already had Fortnite maxed. Still cannot hear any party members on stream but all other fortnite sounds were still audible.
